Metricool's recent output is blog content, not releases—but the AI tool focus signals the product roadmap
A side-by-side editorial comparison of Bludit and MySignature — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
A flat-file CMS with a long CVE history just wired its API up for MCP.
Bludit ships every few weeks, and almost every release carries a security fix: an authentication bypass and arbitrary file upload in 3.18.4, an authenticated RCE via file upload plus .htaccess bypass in 3.20.0, a path traversal in the API files endpoint in 3.21.0, and session invalidation for disabled users in 3.22.0. Around that, the work is editor and dashboard maintenance, theme additions and a plugin hook for injecting editor toolbar buttons.
MySignature turned its digital business card into a lead-capture surface, then instrumented it.
MySignature started as an email signature designer and has spent the last year building out a second product around digital business cards. August was the month that surface stopped being a way to hand over contact details and became a way to collect them: a Collect Contacts form block, a Contacts list behind it, and analytics on views, clicks, QR scans and traffic sources. The signature editor keeps advancing separately, with reply and forward variants the newest addition.

Around that, the work is editor and dashboard maintenance, theme additions and a plugin hook for injecting editor toolbar buttons.
Two threads run in parallel. One is a sustained security cleanup, largely driven by external reports and handled release by release. The other is a quiet repositioning of the API: 3.22.0 improved it specifically to support MCP, which points a file-based CMS at agent-driven authoring. The plugin hook work in 3.20.0 fits the same pattern of opening the editor to programmatic control.
Expect the MCP-facing API work to continue — the initial support arrived as API improvements rather than a documented server, which is the piece still missing.

The direction is from presentation to acquisition. Design tooling — drag mode, AI layout suggestions, banner campaigns — made signatures look better; the card work makes them measurable and makes them capture. That is a different business: a signature is a design asset, a card that collects and reports on leads is a small marketing channel, and the Contacts list is the first place MySignature holds customer data of its own.
Expect the Contacts list to grow the obvious next pieces — export, tagging, and a route into the CRMs and marketing tools its Teams customers already run.
